Both polyester and foam nasal swabs were collected from convalescent COVID-19 patients at a single visit stored in viral transport media (VTM), saline or dry. Sensitivity of each swab material combination estimated, three by tables constructed to measure concordance, cycle threshold (Ct) values compared. 126 visits had 51 saline, 63 VTM dry tube. Polyester an estimated sensitivity 87.3% 94.5% respectively VTM, 87.5% 93.8% 75.0% 90.6% for VTM. Ct correlated, but showed decreased performance...
The COVID-19 pandemic prompted widespread closures of primary and secondary schools. Routine testing asymptomatic students staff members, as part a comprehensive mitigation program, can help schools open safely. "Pooling in pod" is public health surveillance strategy whereby cohorts (pods) are based on social relationships physical proximity. Pooled provides single laboratory test result for the entire pod, rather than separate each person pod. During 2020-2021 school year, an independent...
ABSTRACT Background The exponential growth of COVID-19 cases and testing has created supply shortages at various points in the workflow. As April 15, 2020 FDA recommendations only allowed for use nasopharyngeal, flocked mid turbinate, or foam nasal swabs, all which are very low supply. Polyester swabs more readily available mass producible. We compare performance polyester stored different transport media. Methods Both were collected from convalescent patients a single visit. Using as...
VISUAL ABSTRACT.
ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic prompted widespread primary and secondary school closures. Routine testing of asymptomatic students staff, as part a comprehensive program, can help schools open safely. “Pooling-in-a-pod” is public health surveillance strategy whereby cohorts (pods) are based on social relationships physical proximity. Pooled provides one laboratory result for the entire pod, rather than separate results each individual. Pooling-in-a-pod allowed weekly on-site point-of-care...
